Description

Micromechanical micromirror assembly and corresponding operating method

Technical Field

The invention relates to a micromechanical micromirror assembly and a corresponding operating method.

Background

The invention and the problems based on the invention are explained with reference to micromechanical micromirror assemblies for motor vehicles, although any micromechanical component can also be used.

Micromirror assemblies with piezoelectric drives are known from the prior art and are used, for example, in motor vehicle floodlights or lidar systems. In this case, it is desirable to scan as large an area as possible by deflecting the micromirrors in a compact design. The piezoelectric drive used utilizes the effect of the piezoelectric effect. Upon application of a voltage to the piezoelectric layer, the piezoelectric layer deforms.

A micromechanical micromirror assembly having four torsion beams and arms that can be deformed by piezoelectric Actuators and thereby deflect the coupled micromirrors is known from Sensors and Actuators a 164 of t.iseki et al (2010), pages 95-106.

Disclosure of Invention

The invention provides a micromechanical micromirror assembly according to claim 1 and a corresponding operating method according to claim 15.

Preferred embodiments are the subject matter of the dependent claims.

The core of the invention is that the first and second pivoting wing arrangements extend in the direction of the third axis beyond the second axis as axis of rotation. A leverage effect can thereby be achieved which results in a larger rotation of the micro mirror device when the offset of the first and second pivoting wing devices is relatively small.

According to a preferred embodiment, the first pivot wing arrangement is suspended in a first region of the frame in a first plane, extends in the direction of the third axis beyond the second axis, and is connected at its end to a first projection of the micromirror device by means of a first spring arrangement, wherein the second pivot wing arrangement is suspended in a second region of the frame opposite the first region in the first plane, extends in the direction of the third axis beyond the second axis, and is connected at its end to a second projection of the micromirror device by means of a second spring arrangement, wherein the first projection and the second projection are offset in the same direction along the third axis relative to the second axis. This enables a symmetrical shift of the micromirror device.

According to a further preferred embodiment, the first projection runs linearly and the second projection runs at an angle. In this way the first and second pivoting wing arrangements can be connected along the third axis with a position saving.

According to a further preferred development, the first pivoting-wing arrangement is suspended in a first plane in a first region of the frame, extends at an angle in the direction of the second and third axes, extends beyond the second axis in the direction of the third axis, and is connected at its end by a first spring arrangement to a first projection of the micromirror arrangement, wherein the second pivoting-wing arrangement is suspended in a first plane in a second region of the frame offset laterally with respect to the first region, extends at an angle in the direction of the second and third axes, extends beyond the second axis in the direction of the third axis, and is connected at its end by a second spring arrangement to a second projection of the micromirror arrangement, wherein the first and second projections are offset in the same direction with respect to the third axis, and wherein the micro-mirror device is suspended from the frame by the torsion beam on a second side opposite the first side.

Such that the first and second pivoting wing arrangements can be suspended approximately floating.

According to a further preferred embodiment, the micromechanical micro-mirror assembly is equipped with: a third pivoting wing means suspended from the frame and extending into the area of the recess, the third pivoting wing means being coupled to the micro mirror means by a third spring means; a fourth pivoting wing means suspended from the frame and extending into the area of the recess, the fourth pivoting wing means being coupled to the micromirror means by a fourth spring means; third drive means for offsetting the third pivoting wing means along a first axis arranged perpendicular to the first plane; and fourth drive means for offsetting the fourth pivoting wing means in anti-phase along the first axis, wherein the micro-mirror device is elastically rotatable out of the first plane about the second axis by the offsetting of the third pivoting wing means and the fourth pivoting wing means in anti-phase, and wherein the third pivoting wing means and the fourth pivoting wing means are configured such that they extend beyond the second axis on a second side of the micro-mirror device opposite the first side in a direction along a third axis arranged substantially perpendicular to the second axis. The mask enables quadruple driving.

According to a further preferred development, the third and fourth pivoting wing means, the third spring means, the fourth spring means, the third drive means and the fourth drive means are arranged and coupled symmetrically with respect to the first side on a second side of the micro mirror device opposite to the first side. This enables a symmetrical quad drive.

According to a further preferred embodiment, the first drive device and/or the second drive device has a piezoelectric drive device, wherein a piezoelectric conductor track arrangement is applied to the first pivoting wing arrangement or the second pivoting wing arrangement. This is a robust, simple to manufacture drive.

According to a further preferred embodiment, the first drive device and/or the second drive device has an electromagnetic drive device with an external magnetic field generating device and a coil device, wherein the coil device is applied to the first pivoting wing device or the second pivoting wing device and to the frame.

Detailed Description

In the drawings, like reference numbers indicate identical or functionally identical elements.

Fig. 1a) -e) show a micromechanical micro-mirror assembly according to a first embodiment of the present invention.

In this embodiment, an orthogonal coordinate system is formed by the axes x, y and z, but the coordinate system may be different from the orthogonal form in a general case.

In fig. 1a) to 1e), reference numeral 1 designates a frame of a micromechanical micromirror assembly, which is manufactured, for example, from silicon by a corresponding structuring process. Here, VS is the front side of the frame 1 and RS is the rear side of the frame 1 (see fig. 1 c).

The frame 1 has a recess AS in which the micromirror device 10 is suspended on the frame 1 in the xy-plane.

The first pivoting wing arrangement 2a, which is suspended in the region 100 on the frame 1 and projects into the region of the recess AS, in the rest state, likewise extends in the xy plane and is connected to the first linear projection 7a of the micromirror device 10 by a first spring arrangement 4 a. The first pivoting wing arrangement 2a has a region 2 a' which extends along the y-axis beyond the y-axis on the first side of the micro mirror device 10. The first linear protrusions 7a of the micromirror device 10 are correspondingly attached to the micromirror device 10 along the y-axis offset with respect to the x-axis. If a first piezo drive 81a is applied to the first pivoting wing means 2a on the front side VS, the first pivoting wing means 2a can be displaced out of the xy plane along the z axis by means of this first piezo drive.

The second pivot wing arrangement 3a, which is suspended opposite in the region 101 on the frame 1 and projects into the region of the recess AS, in the rest state, likewise extends in the xy plane and is connected to the first bending projection 6a of the micromirror device 10 by a second spring arrangement 4 b. The second pivot wing arrangement 3a has a region 3a 'which extends along the y-axis on the first side of the micro mirror device 10 outside the y-axis, to be precise in the opposite direction to the region 2 a'. The second pivoting wing arrangement 3a is configured axisymmetrically with respect to the x-axis with respect to the first pivoting wing arrangement 2 a. The first bent tab 6a of the micromirror device 10 is attached to the micromirror device 10 along the y-axis with a further offset with respect to the x-axis in the same direction as the first straight tab 7 a. If a second piezo drive 82a is applied to the second pivot wing device 3a on the front side VS, the second pivot wing device 3a can be displaced out of the xy plane along the z axis by means of this second piezo drive.

The third pivoting wing arrangement 2b, which is suspended in the region 102 on the frame 1 and projects into the region of the recess AS, in the rest state, likewise extends in the xy plane and is connected to the second linear projection 7 of the micromirror device 10 by a third spring arrangement 5 a. The third pivoting wing arrangement 2b has a region 2 b' which extends along the y-axis beyond the y-axis on a second side of the micro mirror device 10, wherein the second side is opposite the first side. The third pivoting wing arrangement 2b is configured axisymmetrically with respect to the y-axis with respect to the first pivoting wing arrangement 2 a. The second linear projection 7b of the micromirror device 10 is correspondingly attached to the micromirror device 10 along the y-axis offset with respect to the x-axis. If a third piezo drive 81b is applied to the third pivoting wing means 2b on the front side VS, the third pivoting wing means 2b can be displaced out of the xy plane along the z axis by means of the third piezo drive.

The fourth pivot wing arrangement 3b, which is suspended opposite in the region 101 on the frame 1 and projects into the region of the recess AS, in the rest state, likewise extends in the xy plane and is connected to the second bending projection 6b of the micromirror device 10 by a fourth spring arrangement 5 b. The fourth pivoting wing arrangement 3b has a region 3b 'which extends along the y-axis on the second side of the micro mirror device 10 outside the y-axis, to be precise in the opposite direction to the region 2 b'. The fourth pivoting wing arrangement 3b is configured axisymmetrically with respect to the x-axis with respect to the third pivoting wing arrangement 2 b. The second bent tab 6b of the micromirror device 10 is attached to the micromirror device 10 along the y-axis with a further offset with respect to the x-axis in the same direction as the second straight tab 7 b. If a fourth piezo drive 82b is applied to the fourth pivoting wing means 3b on the front side VS, the fourth pivoting wing means 3b can be displaced out of the xy plane along the z axis by means of the fourth piezo drive.

As shown in fig. 1b) by the shading of the first and third

piezoelectric drives

81a, 81b, the first pivoting wing means 2a and the third pivoting wing means 2b are offset in phase along the z-axis by the first and third piezoelectric drives 81a or 81 b.

As is shown in fig. 1b) by the shading of the second and fourth

piezo drive

82a, 82b, the second pivoting wing device 3a and the fourth pivoting wing device 3b are likewise offset in phase along the z-axis by means of the second piezo drive 82a and the fourth piezo drive 82 b. Here, the first and third pivoting

wing arrangements

2a, 2b are offset in anti-phase along the z-axis compared to the second and fourth pivoting

wing arrangements

3a, 3 b.

The micromirror device 10 can elastically rotate out of the xy-plane around the x-axis as the rotation axis by the anti-phase offset of the first and third pivoting

wing arrangements

2a, 2b and the second and fourth pivoting

wing arrangements

3a, 3 b.

As can be seen with reference to fig. 1c), the micro mirror device 10 and the first to fourth pivoting

wing devices

2a, 3a, 2b, 3b as well as the

protrusions

7a, 7b, 6a, 6b and the

springs

4a, 4b, 5a, 5b have a thickness which is smaller than the frame 1 surrounding them. This can be achieved in terms of process technology, for example, by etching out the cavities a on the rear side RS of the frame 1.

Fig. 1d) shows an enlarged view of the first and second pivoting

wing arrangements

2a, 3a coupled to the

protrusions

7a, 6a of the micro mirror device 10 by the

springs

4a, 4 b.

Fig. 1e) shows the deflected state of the first pivoting wing arrangement 2a and the second pivoting wing arrangement 3a in opposite directions along the z-axis, whereby the micro mirror device 10 is twisted.

A relatively large deflection of the micromirror device 10 can be achieved by a relatively small deformation of the pivoting

wing arrangements

2a, 3a, 2b, 3b, based on the fact that the first to fourth pivoting

wing arrangements

2a, 3a, 2b, 3b extend along the y-axis beyond the x-axis as rotation axis.

Fig. 2 shows a micromechanical micro-mirror assembly according to a first embodiment of the present invention with a cap section.

According to fig. 2, a first cover substrate 150 having a recess 153 provided in the region of the micro mirror device 10 is arranged on the rear side RS of the frame 1. Thus, micro-mirror device 10 can be deflected into groove 153.

On the front side VS of the frame 1, a ring-shaped intermediate substrate 149 and a second cover substrate 151 located thereon are arranged, wherein the second cover substrate 151 has an optical window 152 in the region of the micro mirror device 10. The optical window 152 is arranged above the through opening 155 of the second cover substrate 151, wherein the micro mirror device 10 can likewise be moved into the through opening 155 when being deflected.

Fig. 3 shows a micromechanical micro-mirror assembly according to a second embodiment of the present invention.

In the second embodiment, the first pivoting wing arrangement has the reference numeral 201 and is coupled to the frame 1 in the area 100'. A first piezo drive 81 a' is arranged on the first pivot wing 201 on the front side VS.

The second pivoting wing arrangement has the reference number 301 and has a second piezo drive 82 a' applied to the front side VS. The second pivoting wing arrangement 301 is coupled to the frame 1 in the area 101'.

The first pivoting wing arrangement 201 and the second pivoting wing arrangement 301 are configured symmetrically with respect to the x-axis and project in parallel into the recess AS'.

The first pivoting wing arrangement 201 extends at an angle along the x-axis and the y-axis, wherein the extension along the y-axis also extends beyond the x-axis as the axis of rotation in the region 201a as in the first embodiment. On its end, the first pivoting wing arrangement 201 is connected on a first side by a first spring arrangement 4 a' to a first linear projection 70a of the micro mirror device 10, wherein the first linear projection 70a is offset along the y-axis relative to the x-axis as in the first embodiment.

Like the first pivoting wing arrangement 201, the second pivoting wing arrangement 301 is likewise suspended in the xy-plane and extends at an angle along the x-axis and the y-axis, wherein the extension along the y-axis exceeds the x-axis as axis of rotation in the region 301 a. On the end of said second pivoting wing means, the second pivoting wing means 301 is connected with the first bending protrusion 60a of the micro mirror device 10 by means of a second spring means 4 b'. The first projection 70a and the second projection 60a are offset along the y-axis relative to the x-axis in the same direction, wherein the bent projection 60a is offset further relative to the x-axis than the straight projection 70 a.

Thus, the coupling of the first and second pivoting

wing arrangements

201, 301 to the micro mirror device is similar to that in the first embodiment and only the extension of the first and second pivoting

wing arrangements

201, 301 is different.

On a second side, opposite to the first side, the micro-mirror device 10 is suspended on the frame 1 by a torsion beam 250, wherein the torsion beam 250 runs along the x-axis.

As indicated by the corresponding shading, the first pivoting wing arrangement 201 and the second pivoting wing arrangement 301 can be shifted along the z-axis by the first and second piezoelectric drives 81a ', 82 a' in the same phase opposition, whereby a rotatability of the micro mirror device 10 about the x-axis can be achieved.

The torsion beam 250 serves as a simple rotational hinge and can also be folded multiple times if necessary in order to reduce torsional rigidity. In the second embodiment, the first and second pivoting

wing arrangements

201, 301 can be configured longer and thus offset more strongly than in the first embodiment.

Fig. 4 shows a micro-mechanical micro-mirror assembly according to a third embodiment of the present invention.

In the third embodiment, the first pivoting wing arrangement has the reference numeral 201 'and the second pivoting wing arrangement has the reference numeral 301', wherein the region extending beyond the x-axis is marked with the reference numeral 201a 'or 301 a'. The areas 100 "and 101" indicate the coupling area of the first pivoting wing arrangement 201 'or the second pivoting wing arrangement (reference numeral 301') on the frame 10.

The first piezo drive 81a ″ is applied to the first pivoting wing means 201' on the front side VS, and the second piezo drive 82a ″ is applied to the second pivoting wing means 301 on the front side VS. The coupling on the micro-mirror device 10 and the extension of the first pivoting wing device 201 'and the second pivoting wing device 301' in the recess AS "are similar to the second embodiment.

In addition to the second embodiment, a first torsion device 710 having a first third piezo drive 83a applied thereto is provided next to and spaced apart from the first pivoting wing device 201 ', and a second torsion device 720 having a fourth piezo drive 83b applied thereto is provided next to and spaced apart from the second pivoting wing device 301'.

If an opposite polarization is applied to the third and fourth piezoelectric drives 83a, 83b of the first torsion device 710 or the second torsion device 720 than to the first and second piezoelectric drives 81a ", 82 a" of the first pivoting wing device 201 'or the second pivoting wing device 301', said polarization causes a contraction in the region 750 and thus an additional torsion and thus an additional deflection of the first and second pivoting wing devices 201 ', 301' along the z-axis and thus a stronger torsion of the micromirror device about the x-axis.

Fig. 5 shows a micro-mechanical micro-mirror assembly according to a fourth embodiment of the present invention.

The general configuration in the third embodiment according to fig. 5 is similar to that of the first embodiment.

Additionally, next to the first and second pivoting wing means 2a, 3a and the third and fourth pivoting wing means 2b, 3b, respectively, a further groove a1 or a2 is provided, inside which a spring F1, F2 or F3, F4 is inserted. By means of the springs F1, F2 or F3, F4 and the piezoresistive devices R1-R4 (see fig. 6a) -c)) exerted on said springs, it is possible to detect the deflection of the pivoting

wing devices

2a, 3a or 2b, 3b and thus of the micro-mirror device 10 out of the xy-plane about the x-axis, as explained below with reference to fig. 6a) -6 c).

Fig. 6a) -c) are detailed views of a sensor device according to a fourth embodiment of the invention.

As shown in fig. 6a) to 6c), the individual piezoresistive resistors R1, R2, R3, R4 are applied to the springs F1 to F4 in the end regions of the springs on the frame 1.

The piezoresistors R1-R4 can be connected by means of conductor rail arrangements, not shown, to form a wheatstone measuring bridge, to which external potentials VS, VR can be applied and the bridge voltage can be detected by means of the voltage sensing arrangement UM, as is schematically shown in fig. 6 c).

The bent projections extend in opposite directions along the y-axis beyond the x-axis.

In the fourth embodiment, a piezoelectric driving device is not provided, but an electromagnetic driving device including an external magnetic field generating device B and a coil device is provided. The coil arrangement has a first coil 351a which is guided onto the frame 10 and the first pivoting wing arrangement 350 a.
